Fellow undergraduate student, Ramit, added: “What’s really exciting about this project is the possibility of realising our designs on a large scale in a real site, working with real clients and taking both the opportunities and challenges that this presents.

“Coming up with an idea and drawing it is one thing, but thinking about how it would work both structurally and within budget and timing constraints is a real challenge.”

The project has been support by the Cambridge Architecture Association, the Cambridge Forum for the Construction Industry, Travis Perkins, Rainclear and a variety of local architecture practices.

Every year, first year students from Cambridge University Architect Department design and build a project with a local organisation, such as the Junction arts venue and the Cambridge Cyrenians charity.

Cambridge University design fellow, Julika Gittner, said: “This was a great experience for our students and a wonderful opportunity to contribute to the learning environment at this inspiring school.

“Collaborating with local organisations in Cambridge shows that we can work together to make good things happen.

“Its been absolutely inspiring working with the year 3 children as clients for this project.

“Their responsive attitude and boundless imagination have enabled us and our students to push the ideas for this project beyond the expected.

“We hope the children enjoy these structures and feel inspired to think more about architecture and its effect on their day to day lives.
